I replaced my trusty of old basic electric Potterton Kingfisher with aVitodens 200 system boiler some months ago. And it works just fine. However, I miss having the external programmer of old - if I wish toswitch things off when going away etc it means going to the boiler itself.Viessmann reckon the way round this is to use an extra external controller- using the room stat circuit - and leave the internal one set toconstant. Which isn't really what I want. Apart from the unnecessary cost. The integral controller has a four pin plug for everything - so I'massuming DC and a data circuit. Any reason why I shouldn't just extendthis and site the programmer where I want it - the cable run would only bea metre or so. Or any other suggestions? Other thing is the existing old programmer is mounted on a tiled surfaceand if I remove it it will leave holes. And I've no spare tiles. Butdislike having an unused device left in place.
